    Broadband

    just got it connected up today at the shop. What a difference, especially on this site. Instant page loads no more waiting, the down side is that it is only for work use untill we see how many gigs we need to use. So I am still posting on dail up at home for now, anyway.

    Yeah, similar situation here (except no new house). I'm not sure what the work connection runs at; it used to be a microwave link to the Sky Tower for all our communications (including phone), but it was unreliable, so now it's some fast broadband thingo. Has to be, as we act as an ASP for some of our clients.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    NZ doesn't even really have broadband as such, well not international standard anyway. Over in Japan I was constantly using 100mb connections, slowest I came across was about 50mb. But I have to say now that i have 2mb at home, I could never go back to dial-up.
